The announcement concerning the western front follows: “Apart from strong artillery sur- prise attacks on Butte De Tahure and lively artillery battles on the front bgtween the Meuse and the Moselle, there is nothing of importance to re- port.” Another Teutonic Success, Berlin, Nov. 2, by wireless to Say- ville, N.

Cloging in on Nish. The Austrian, German and Bulgar- ian armies are drawing the net more closely about Nish. In the south the French assert they have inflicted con- siderable losses on the Bulgarians, who are reported to have been thrown back on the right bank of the Vardar. The only political development of note in the Balkans is a change of tone in the ministerial press of Athens, which is publishing apparently in- spired articles of a nature friendly to the entente allies, although still in- sisting Greece must maintain her pol- icy of benevolent neutrality. Russian Offensive Extends. Along the eastern front there is evi- dence of a considerable extension of the Russian offensive. This is indi- cated by official reports from both sides, although neither claims any im- portant result from the: operations. Definite reports concerning the prog- ress of the new German attack on Riga also are lacking. . Russia’s active participation in the Balkans may have begun, inasmuch as Bucharest reports that Russian troops have been landed at Varna. This Bulgarian port is said to be de- fended by Turks commanded by Ger- | man officers. The English public awaits with keen interest Premier Asquith’s speech in the house of commons. It is expect- ed to be not only a review of recent diplomatic and military activities, but | a defense of the coalition cabinet's conduct of the war.

Amsterdam, Nov. 2,via London 1.25 p. m.—A new Anglo-French expedi- tion to the Balkans is announced by the Berlin Tageblatt. This newspaper publishes a telegram from Sofia stat- ing that British and French transport ships, with troops, have appeared off Kavala, Greece.

It is eighty miles northeast of the Greek port of Saloniki, where the first detachments of British and French troops were landed for the Serbian campaign. Kavala is the nearest Greek port to the Gallipoli Peninsula, and might be selected as on landing place in case French and British troops were with- drawn from the peninsula for service agaipst Bulgaria. A Berlin despatch yesterday said troops now on the Ser- bian front, brought in by way of Saloniki, had been sent from the peninsula, A few miles north from Kavala is the railroad which runs from Saloniki to the Bulgarian port of Dedeaghatch, POWDER EXPLOSION INJURES SEVENTEEN Vivid Flash of Fire Envelops Entire Premises of Du Pont Plant at Carney's Point, N. J. Wilmington, Del., Nov. 2—Seventeen men were badly injured today by a heavy explosion of a large quantity of powder at No 1 plant of the Du Pont powder works at Carney’s Point, N. J.

Whiddon, private Com- ! pany A, Seventh Infantry, hit in neck. | H. K. Jones, letter carrier, wound- ed in shoulder. Mexican Boy Shot. Eight-year-old Mexican boy, shot in stomach. Taylor was at the United custom house during the fighting yes- terday afternoon and was struck as he turned to run for cover. The fusillade of bullets endangered a throng of American soldiers, Mexican women and children gathered there. Whiddon was struck while on guard at the railroad station several blocks from the border. H. K. Jones was | standing in front of his home on Seventh street when hit by a stray | bullet. Lack of Food And Water. | Villa’s men are said to be suffering | greatly through lack of food and wa- ter. General Iunston arrived early to- day to assume command of the American forces here.

On the remainder of the front there were gevere engagements. “On the eastern (Bulgarian) front there was no important change south of the Morava. Toward Pirot fight- Ing is continuous, also is the case to the west of Zajecar.” Public Interest Divided. London, Nov. 2, 11:53 a. m.—Pub- lic jnterest is divided today ' between Premier Asquith’s speech in the house of commons and Rumania’s reported Intentions to throw her lot with the entente allies. News coming by way of Pasis lends support to the growing Impression that Rumania is preparing to intervene in the war. By royal decree new classes of Ru- manian recruits are being mobilized. Vienna reports that “a grave situa- tion” may arise between Austria and Ruthania in connection with the pro- posed use of the lower Danube to transport Russian troops to Bulgaria. Little news comes direct from Buchar- nat, as the censorship is enforced so Prepare For Retreat. El Paso, Tex., Nov. 2.—Confiscation of horses, mules and vehicles from res- idents of Juarez by Villa troops wus reported here today. It is said these will be utilized by the Villa troops in- the event the city is evacuated. Cease Firing Into U. S. Washington, Nov. 2.—Anxiety on the part of administration officials for the safety of American citizens along the Mexican border as a result of the fighting between the Carranza and Villa armies was somewhat relieved today. This was based upon reports that a warning by General Thomas F. Davis, commanding the American troops entrenched on the international bordér, to the commanders of the warring factions at Agua Prieta, to cease -firing into American territory had been heeded. Thé warning fol- lowed the serious wounding of Louis F. Taylor, an American, by a shot fired from a machine gun which fell into American territory. Major General Funston who was expected to arrive at Douglas, Ariz, today to take personal charge of the situation, has instructions from the war department to return any fire from Mexican territory endangering American lives. Should bullets con- tinually fall inta Arizona and, endan- | ger Americans, United States troops, without further reference to Wash- ington, are to shell the faction which fires into American territory- De- a carload of white cannon powder, but the serious results were not so much from the explosion as it occurred in a large room, as from the vivid flash of fire that enveloped the entire premises. The injured men were vic- tims of this fiery visitation. Of the seventeen men hurt, fourteen were quite seriously injured, one hav- ing died, while three others may not recover. ALLIES WINNING GREECE, More Favorable Attitude Apparently Assumed in Official Circles. London, Nov. 11:17 a. m.—In official Greek circles an attitude more favorable to the entente allies appar- ently has been assumed. Reuter’s corrspondent at Athens telegraphs that simultaneously with the official denial of reports of Greece’s hostility toward the entente powers came a change in tone of the ministerial vress, which is now publishing articles in faver of the allies. These articles presumably are inspired. Notwithstanding the drift of opinion, it {s maintained that the neu- trality of Greece will be adhered to as long as possible. Tke correspondent savs there are indications inat any at- temj.L to change the policy of the gov- ernment would resuit in the fall of the cabinet.
